This recognition highlights the strength and maturity of Hitachi Rail's sustainability management system and reflects the company's continued commitment to responsible business practices, environmental stewardship, ethical conduct, and supply chain transparency.
The EcoVadis Platinum Medal is the highest level of recognition granted by EcoVadis, one of the world's most trusted providers of business sustainability ratings. The assessment evaluates companies across four key areas: Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.
The Platinum Medal also underscores Hitachi Rail's commitment to transparency and responsible practices across its value chain. By working closely with suppliers and stakeholders, the company promotes high sustainability standards throughout its operations and business relationships, reinforcing its ambition to contribute to a more sustainable future through innovative rail technologies, digital solutions, and environmentally responsible transportation systems.
"Sustainability is not an ambition alongside business – it is increasingly integrated into how business creates value. Achieving EcoVadis Platinum reflects the progress we are making in embedding sustainability into the way we operate, make decisions, and manage risk. It also reflects the commitment of colleagues across our business who are strengthening performance, building resilience, and creating value every day", said Dr. Maiya Shibasaki, Chief Sustainability Officer of Hitachi Rail.
As a global leader in sustainable transportation solutions, Hitachi Rail continues to invest in innovation that supports the transition to low-carbon mobility, helping cities and regions reduce emissions while improving connectivity and quality of life.
